As a grant holder, you must comply with Lundbeck Foundation's General Terms and Conditions for Research Grants in force at any given time. There may be special guidelines for specific grants. If so, these will be sent to you. Find more information about the General Terms and Conditions
Payment
The first instalment of the grant is paid out by request via the Foundation鈥檚 application and nomination system (). The first instalment will at the earliest be paid out one month before the starting date of the project. The payment request must be made at the latest one month after the starting date of the project.
If the research grant is a multi-year grant, further payments are subject to the Foundation鈥檚 approval of your annual reports.
Surplus funds
The Lundbeck Foundation must be notified immediately if you receive funding from another source for a project that has already received a grant from the Lundbeck Foundation, meaning that the project receives more funding than the amount for which you applied. Surplus funds must be repaid to the Foundation.
Unspent funds from a completed project must be repaid to the Foundation.
Open access policy
The Lundbeck Foundation follows the , thus encouraging our grantees to publish in an Open Access (OA) journal, as long as this journal is of a high and recognised quality.
We expect publications supported by the Lundbeck Foundation - whenever possible 鈥 to be published as Green or Golden OA. We support publishing expenses, but not OA expenses over and above those related to publishing as Green OA.
Green OA refers to publication in a quality-assured journal coupled with parallel archiving of the final quality-assured version of the researcher鈥檚 article in a digital repository. This repository will have online OA for all, potentially following any embargo period as set by the journal.
Golden OA refers to a model where the journal as such is published as OA, and all its articles are immediately accessible online free of charge. The costs 鈥 Article Processing Charges 鈥 are typically covered by the researcher who pays the journal/publisher for the publication of each individual article. For the time being, this model often implies considerable extra costs in relation to the existing subscription-based publication model.
Information and publication
All grants are published on the Lundbeck Foundation鈥檚 website.
The Lundbeck Foundation must be credited in all public information material about projects funded by the Foundation. Therefore, it must be clearly stated in all peer-reviewed publications, conference proceedings, press coverage and other communication activities that the project is funded by the Lundbeck Foundation. If you are interviewed or, for example, talk to the media, you should ensure that it is quite clear that the activity is funded by the Lundbeck Foundation.
